[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 947270"] Proven, there is no difference in inherent accuracy between belted and non-belted. I prefer non-belted but now have belted case rifles that I really like. The WSM is proven the equal of the WM (argue about this somewhere else please). IMHO: Having a reamer made for the 300WM without the belt and turning off the belt is far more work than needed for no gain. I believe there could be a safety issue. If it were me and I wanted an new high performance 30 cal (magnum) I would go: [LIST=1] [*]308/26 Nosler (well I already have most of the others) [*]300 WSM [*]300 RUM [*]300 Wby (what can I say, the new rifle is working) [*]300 WM [/LIST] But if factory ammo availability were important, there are only 2: [LIST=1] [*]300WM [*]300WSM [/LIST] What little RUM factory I've tried didn't work for me and 300 Wby factory is very spendy.
